Bombus’ debut self-titled album to be remastered and reissued on September 11th
Swedish rockers Bombus consisting of lead vocalist and guitarist Feffe Berglund, drummer Peter Asp, bassist Ola Henriksson, and guitarists Simon Solomon and Johan Meiton, will have their debut self-titled album remastered and reissued via Black Lodge Records / Sound Pollution on September 11, 2026.
Freeman Promotions‘ press release indicates:
“Originally released in 2010 via Black Lodge Records, Bombus‘ self-titled debut arrived like a thunderclap, introducing the Swedish quartet’s potent blend of heavy metal, sludge, punk energy, and melodic hooks. Praised for its raw, uncompromising sound, the album quickly earned widespread critical acclaim in Sweden, including an impressive 4.2 rating on Kritiker.se, and sold out within weeks of its release. The record’s impact extended beyond its home country, with Fenriz of Darkthrone famously naming Bombus his “Band of the Week,” helping cement the group’s status as one of Scandinavia’s most exciting emerging heavy acts.
Now, for the first time ever, this long out-of-print debut returns in a definitive reissue edition through Black Lodge Records. Newly remastered by Magnus Lindberg, whose credits include acclaimed work with The Hellacopters, Cult of Luna, Refused, and Alcest, the album delivers greater clarity, depth, and crushing power while preserving the grit and intensity that made it an underground classic. Featuring updated artwork and the fan-favorite track “Biblical,” this reissue offers the most complete and definitive presentation of the album to date.
Since forming in 2008, Bombus has continued to build on the foundation laid by their debut, releasing acclaimed albums including The Poet and the Parrot (2013), Repeat Until Death (2016), Vulture Culture (2019), and most recently Your Blood. Across each release, the band has refined the signature sound first captured on Bombus—a fierce combination of aggressive riffs, memorable melodies, and punk-fueled urgency. More than a reissue, this release serves as a vital document of modern Swedish metal history and a chance for longtime fans and new listeners alike to experience the album that started it all.”
